Hotel Oasi

I have mixed emotions with our stay at this hotel (we booked 2 nights ). We experienced a memorable evening here in the garden of the attached restaurant Giovanna (same ownership as the hotel) with a light jazz performance all evening. Beautifully dressed tables, excellent food, very friendly service, top ambiance with people dancing and having lots of fun. In short: a wonderful evening. However, the infrastructure of the hotel (swimming pool) and the rooms themselves are in need of maintenance. In particular, the bathroom was outdated and the one of our daughters even had an unpleasant smell. Good points for location and staff, especially the Romanian lady at breakfast. The staff takes a break between 3:30 pm and 6:30 pm, so there is no bar attendance at the pool. Didn't really think this was up to the standard of a four star hotel. In short, the hotel has potential but rooms and pool are in dire need of an upgrade because worn out. Apparently the hotel recently changed owners. Hopefully they will give it a facelift.

Overall Panarea is a nice island but 2 days are clearly enough as the pricing also in comparison to the other Eolian Islands is very expensive. We stayed in an apartment called Villa Rocce Rossa which was nice overall with a very nice terrace which you share with the other party in the apartment next to us ( but we knew that) The room is small but ok , the shower could be refurbished . Overall is was quite loud especially as it is not far from the noisy port (additionally there was a very loud wedding which you cannot the hotel blame for) The big disappointment was the service, they were not answering on the contact form on their website and not to emails on ***********. So we called to arrange the transfer from the port a few days before we arrived but actually nobody was there and then we called again after we arrived and no excuse and then she picked us up as the last passengers of the whole boat, all others were gone. And the worst was we had to leave the receptionist who introduced herself as principal told us that we should call her before we leave if she could bring us to the port. When we called her 30min before the boat was about to leave she did not pick up the phone and did not call back so that we had to pull the 2 big suitcases 400m over the bumpy roads to the port. Overall average experience with a poor person responsible for the reception.

Très belle hôtel de charme Un accueil très chaleureux et sympathique La piscine est magnifique et dispose de nombreux bain de soleil Le jardin est très agréable avec de nombreux endroit pour s’allonger et se détendre à l’ombre La chambre climatisée était très confortable, la décoration est superbe
